I wandered through the meadow the other night after my duty and lost track of time. I love the meadow and it makes me happy to be there. When you stand at Byrd Visitor Center and gaze out on the meadow you cannot see all of the diversity that inhabits this space. You have to get closer, walk slowly and observe. I stumbled upon a wild turkey in the brush, an array of butterflies and other insects, wildflowers, tons of blueberries and a deer. You might ask" blue berries and a deer what's the big deal here?" Ahh...but feasting on blueberries from the same bush with the deer, now that is a privilege. I was reminded of the connection I felt with the animals I was physically close to when I visited the Galapagos. The deer did did not seem to mind sharing her dinner with me.
